I have a feeling I might be 1 day ahead of GunNewb.. We both sent our packets in on the same day yet I live in Austin and the travel time for mail form Austin -> Austin is 1 day.. It took 2 days for his to get there... I predict your status will change either today after Noon OR tomorrow morning.. I'll cross my fingers for ya! :mrgreen:

@txgrifter

My thoughts exactly!

I remember our brief conversation about your unusually long lunch breaks as an Austinite. My fingers are crossed...

let me guess, with a few of us getting an update you have been reloading all morning "rlol" I would be too.. hell I still am!

I really hope they don't keep records of who logs in and how frequently.. I can only imagine if, god forbid, something happened and had to use our weapons, get taken to court and they bring up the records of us checking our application status ' The defendant checked the status of his application 125 times a day for 4 weeks straight!'

Oh well.. still worth it!

I can hear the lawyers now "Your honor, he seemed a bit eager to shoot my client. Checking status 125 times a day for 4 weeks."
